Why It Matters

Bad power kills good gear.
And your reputation.

Your clients trust you to spec equipment that performs every night, every session, every show. When dirty power causes hum, glitches, or catastrophic failure, it's your name on the line, not the power company's. For over 50 years, Furman has been the choice of audio engineers, broadcast professionals, and system integrators who refuse to gamble with power.

Rob Harris introduces the Merit Z Series and what makes it the right choice for integrators.

Three Ways to Protect Your Rack.

All three models feature Exteme Voltage Shutdown, standard-level surge protection, and noise filtration. Choose the features your install demands.

What Makes the Merit Z Series Different.

Exteme Voltage Shutdown (EVS)

EVS continuously monitors incoming AC power. If voltage spikes above 140V or drops below 85V, EVS instantly disconnects power to equipment before damage occurs. When power stabilizes, it reconnects automatically. No downtime. No blown gear. No service calls.

Standard-Level Surge Protection

6,500 Amps peak impulse current. 126 Joules energy dissipation. Line-to-neutral protection mode. Maximum clamping voltage: 455 Volts.

Noise Filtration

Greater than 20dB noise attenuation from 200kHz to 10MHz. RFI and EMI interference get filtered out before they reach your gear. Tighter bass, lower noise floor, cleaner audio.

Built for Integration

Steel chassis. Integrated rack ears. Generous wall-wart spacing. Front-panel diagnostic LED lights for breaker/EVS and protection status. Black painted finish.

Furman Dynamic Voltmeter display showing green safe voltage indicator

Exclusive to M-8Dz

Dynamic Voltmeter: Always Watching Your Power.

The Dynamic Voltmeter continuously displays real-time incoming AC voltage. The LEDs dynamically change color and/or flash when cautionary or unsafe conditions are detected.

Green = safe. Yellow = caution. Flashing red = unsafe. No menus, no interpretation, no guesswork. From across a dark venue or studio, one glance tells you everything. Helps prevent downtime, extend equipment life, and protect valuable investments.

Available on M-8Dz only

Available on M-8Lz & M-8Dz

Tuneable RGBW Pull-Out Lights.
